sup /g/, msi gtx980 user here.
after installing 368.22 gaming performance decreased sensibly. fallout dropped below 50fps, with only a few mods installed. the division also couldn't even reach 50 iirc. even far cry 3 couldn't quite keep stable 60. which driver version should i install to have at least decent performances?
>tl;dr gtx980 performing shitty after 368.22, what should install?

Just downgrade. In fact, with the 1000 series going at full speed at this point, just don't update drivers again.

Hi MSI user, EVGA 980 Superclocked user here. After installing the same update and playing the same games, there was no discernible difference in performance against historical benchmarks.
Sorry you bought a chink brand. Should've spent more on quality.
>>54823258
THE WAY
>>54823288
ITS MEANT
>>54823313
TO BE GIMPED

AMD buttmad Poolaris here.
If I were to ever buy Nvidia I would definitely get an EVGA. You might not be able to see MSI is garbage so easily from your side of things, but when you're dealing with 290X temperatures you see very quickly that MSI is subpar.
EVGA is to Nvidia as Sapphire is to AMD.

What's the board opinion on PNY, Gigabyte, and Zotac?
>>54826446
shit, ok and shit
>>54823258
Possibly. You should not install new drivers on old cards.
780Ti user here, anything past 2015 will run shitty on my system.
>>54826157
This is true. I'm going to buy a EVGA 1070 soon.
>>54823258
oh i am laffin
>>54826458
why?
Because I have had great PNY products, shit Gigabyte products, and Zotac just seems like their products are made in cheap.
EVGA ranges in competent IMO.
>>54826663
its funny too because sapphire and zotac are owned by the same company
>>54823258
currently running 361.75 and it runs great for me on a EVGA 970
>>54823258
new cards on the horizon, time for some gimping
>>54826696
It's like HGST and WD, they're both the same company, but HGST is miles better than WD.
>>54826755
Great thing is they dont even have to try to gimp the 970, they just need to make it start using all 4GB of vram!

Every so often my games get nerfed by a driver update. Uninstall, run DDU in safe mode and reinstall. All goes back to normal.

pretty much this, try this first OP
